Linking War and Political Violence

This Oliver Smithies lecture at Balliol College, University of Oxford, is titled 'Linking War and Political Violence: Big Ideas, Complex Processes, Difficult Comparisons'. Small Arms Survey Programme Director Keith Krause explains in detail the different types of violence that war has brought throughout the years. He also describes some of the motives behind the political and non-political actors and the impact of their violent acts in society, ranging from gangs and organised crime to more conventional forms of violence.
